Dissay - Château

The castle was built in the late 15th for Pierre d'Amboise, bishop of Poitiers. It then served as a residence for all succeeding bishops of Poitiers up to the French Revolution. It got altered during the 18th and completely restored and rebuilt in the early 20th century - and now looks perfect.
